Re: ATM Making a Telrad finder

[Donald Clement <clement@cqt.com>]

There is a good article in , I think ,S&T  March 1975 on building
non-magnifying finders with illuminated circles. Also discussed was projecting
an illuminated circle coaxially through a magnifying finder and a meniscus
type of zero power finder was hinted at.

Hello.

        I've heard good things about Telrad finders. I don't own one,
but if
i'm not mistaken it's a non-magnifiying finder with illuminated
circles in
it, right? It might be interesting to make, and it doesn't seem to be
very
difficult or complex. Has anyone ever tried making one, or does anyone
have
any ideas?
